Short Script Not sure what is wrong.

[adamSs]

Is there anything blatantly wrong with this? This is the entire script. It is supposed to op me when I join my channel. I'm just getting my feet wet with bot scripting. Thanks in advance!

Code: Select all

putlog "Op loaded"

bind join o adamSs@hellagood.org join:me
proc join:me { chan nick } {
if { [isop $chan $botnick] == 1 } { pushmode $chan +o $nick } 
}

Not sure how good an idea this script is, but...

The bind mask for join is matched against "#channel nick!user@host"
So we'll assume your username is: adamSs

The proc associated with a bind trigger, takes 4 arguments, like...
procname <nick> <user@host> <handle> <channel>

$botnick is a global variable that would require either a global tag
or using like $::botnick for it to be used in a proc.

Correct format for the isop command is: isop <nickname> [channel]
but i wouldn't use that command at all, and would use: botisop [channel]
and we won't need the global botnick line at all:)

Other than that, it's perfect.
Why not just add yourself to the bot's user file with +ao if that's all you want to do?

For security reasons, neither of these plans is really a good idea,
but this script may do what you want, if you have a global +o flag in the bot's user file.

Code: Select all

putlog "Op loaded" 

bind join o "*!adamSs@hellagood.org" join:me 

proc join:me {nick uh hand chan} { 
  if {[botisop $chan]} { pushmode $chan +o $nick } 
}

Note: If adamSs is your nick, and not your username, change that bind mask to something more like: "* adamSs!*@hellagood.org"

According to TCL manual:

bind join <flags> <mask> <proc>
procname <nick> <user@host> <handle> <channel>

Description: triggered by someone joining the channel. The mask in
the bind is matched against "#channel nick!user@host" and can contain wildcards.
Module: irc

so..

Code: Select all

bind join o "% *!adamSs@hellagood.org" join:me
proc join:me {nick uhost hand chan} {
	if {[botisop $chan]} {
		pushmode $chan +o $nick
	}
}

adjust the hostmask if needed.

I hope this helps.
